Broadcast Email Policy revised May 2009

General Information and Guidelines

  • All official Rutgers Automated Mass-Mailing System lists (RAMS) are moderated by designated campus administrators.
  • Messages submitted through RAMS for Rutgers-Newark broadcast are automatically sent to the campus moderators. (see: List Moderators, right)
  • The campus moderators have final approval of all messages; according to policy established by the Office of the Chancellor. (see Use Broadcast Email For)
  • Messages sent through RAMS go to users who have accurate email addresses in their student or employee records; these records are maintained by Administrative Computing.

  • Broadcast emails can be sent to all Rutgers-Newark faculty, all staff and all students, or to specific schools and departments (review available lists at RAMS).
  • Generally, approved messages will be distributed after 6pm on the date submitted, except on weekends and university holidays.
  • Emergency messages can be sent out before 6pm. If the situation warrants, please contact the appropriate broadcast email moderators. (see List Moderators, right)


Policy Statement Regarding Broadcast Email

It is the policy of Rutgers University that campus-wide broadcast email messages be consistent with the academic mission of the university. For the purpose of this policy, broadcast email is defined as a mass email sent to all students, faculty and/or staff on important and relevant matters. With the increasing volume of mail received by members of the university community, it is important to avoid overuse of "broadcast" emails that result in blanket emails or "spamming" or in such volume that impairs the operational integrity of network facilities.
